The varsity contest is slated to start at 5:30 pm following the 4 pm junior varsity match. Dig Pink attendees are asked to wear something pink and contribute to support breast cancer health awareness. All money from the donations, raffle, and concessions will go to the Side-Out Foundation and also to the Sole Sisters, a group of Sandy Hook breast cancer survivors raising money for breast cancer.
